Each objective consists of a list of tasks. The list of objectives here is ready for community approval but the tasks in each page need surely more iterations.

The best open source projects target primarily the Maemo platform.

bugs.maemo.org to get Nokia developers involved as well as the consolidated community projects.

{{main|Objective:Co-production of official & community documentation}}
+
=== Openness, openness, openness ===
-
Nokia and the Maemo community to collaborate in the production of the documentation developers and other contributors need.
+
* Core libraries developed in the open by Nokia employees, and maemo.org community contributors.
 +
* Non-Nokia specification writing and approval, worked on by Nokia employees and maemo.org community contributors; discussed on public mailing lists.
 +
* The ability to build a complete, flashable image by maemo.org community for beta testing of open components in development. (May be less necessary in an SSU-based world: TBC)
 +
* The ability to strip a maemo-based OS down to its base and build it up again differently (for example, KDE and no Hildon).
 +
** By 2010, installing completely different UIs should be achievable through the Application Manager.
-
== Community localization ==
+
== Maemo developer resources ==
-
{{main|Objective:Community localization}}
+
* Better localization guidelines for new and existing Developers.
-
The Maemo experience in our own language, translated by ourselves.
+
    --keep focused on the core of the project
 +
    --stay unified and work out the details later
 +
    --focus every module in a step by step instead of a free for all
 +
    --delegate. Newbs need the experience  
 +
* Development Framework. ???
 +
* Documentation System. (Help system???)
 +
    --getting started is way to difficult and will detour many great minds
 +
    --outsource to the blogger types in the group
 +
          --voice record "dictate to the typers"
 +
          --video and slide w/audio help for many
 +
    --cut out the opinions where are the real facts (make an easy to find location)
 +
* Better GPS resources. (GeoClue???)
 +
* Development Tools and Utilities for Linux, OS X and Windows.
 +
    --GUI development package (reduce learning curve)
 +
    --Better feedback on testing of packages
 +
    --make simple system for ideas to be tried
 +
* Better modern native languages support - like Vala and D. && how to build a hello world app in C++/Vala in 10 minute (no more!)
 +
    --
 +
=== Ship high level building blocks ===
 +
* Think of media server, VoIP, contact lists, camera, GPS localization. Currently developers only have the low level API's, while mostly they just want a widget that displays the mentioned data and listen to user interaction signal or device signals. This also makes these functionalities look the same in all applications using them

{{main|Objective:Maemo variants}}

Software requests are really '''out-of-scope''' and ''not relevant'' to this brainstorming session (or able to be provided by third party developers without maemo.org involvement); however, they are recorded here so they ''do not get duplicated'':
-
Tools to bring platform innovation to adventurous users.
+
* A PIM system that can be tied into by developers, to provide PC synchronization etc.
 +
** A equivalent to telepathy for calendar and contact list: A well integrated framework.
 +
* Telepathy:
 +
** Better video call support
 +
* Global sync-software
 +
* Office suite. (???) see discussion
 +
* Unionfs support built into the kernel (So users don't have to flash initfs and boot from SD, or make symlinks gone wild, just to install a few extra apps)
 +
* a2dp
 +
* Better support for right-to-left languages, such as Arabic, and Hebrew.
